Aber Warte:mal! Who is this piece of cosmic poetry? Maybe you were bewitched by his magic and time travelling at Fusion last year. Or was it Garbicz? Oh yeah, Distortion! Naah, maybe Moyn Moyn?!
Aber Warte:mal, if music can transform consciousness, then he is living proof of it! You might doubt my words, but you'll rather not doubt your own eyes when you see him nor will you doubt your feelings when you step into his musical mind. Combining intelligence, mastery and playfulness, he immerses us in an hedonistic journey through our senses and invites us to just be and flow. There is no space for judgements in his universe. His sets often feel like entering a movie, in which you're captivated from the beginning and soon involved in the suspense, inviting you to indulge into the uncertainty where it will take you, but with the certainty that surrendering to his wilderness will guide you to the land of eternal mornings <3

∞ᏇᏗᏒᏖᏋ:ᎷᏗᏝ∞
an ancient cosmic traveller ascended to take you on an epic journey
traveling through apocalyptical landscapes in cheerful melancholia
on purple clouds to the land of eternal mornings
with a never-ending soundscape of lucid dreams and a new tomorrow <3

The clock ticks, not with time, but with the heartbeat of forgotten shadows. Beneath the weight of a single raindrop, mountains remember their names, whispered only in the language of stone. A feather falls upwards, chasing the echo of a bird that never flew, while the moon wears a mask of sunlight, pretending to dream.

Somewhere, in the fold between moments, a door opens to a room with no walls, and in its center, a candle burns without flame. You were always there, watching yourself arrive, yet you cannot recall the shape of your footsteps.

Perhaps this is why the ocean sighs, endlessly folding itself, trying to recall what it means to be a cloud.

Tijn Driessen is what we call a born musician. Since 2013 he has been working as a session musician with roots in improvised music. But there’s a certain energy on the dancefloor that called for his attention. After moving to Ghent in 2018, Tijn has been surrounding himself with an increasing number of electronic music devices. He started producing his own tracks and has been combining his skills on the piano with electronic beats. For his first solo releases he found Moodfamily label (Ghent) as a partner in crime. By now he also released on Ritual Recordings (Paris), Minds Alike (Miami) and WZW Records. Tijn Driessen his sound is still evolving, but bookers abroad start noticing him. After regular performances in Funke (Ghent) en Broei (Ghent), he was invited to play Klunkerkranich and to be the support act of Stavroz. Lately, he is also adding vinyl and a more hybrid approach to his DJ sets.

Tijn Driessen loves improvisation. When he plays live, he’is the conductor of his own electronic orchestra. He’ll be tweaking drum computers, rearranging songs or just downgrading them to 1 loop. It’s all about (de)construction, feeling a vibe and diving into the rabbit hole. His live setup forces him to improvise on the spot. Nobody knows where we will end up, including Tijn.
Tijn will always try to create a cosy warmth and a loving atmosphere. He’s not afraid to switch it up or throw in some vocals or a guilty pleasure. Behind the decks there are even less restrictions. “Not too much prep please, I’m throwing a curveball.” In short, Tijn needs to feel free.
